TY - JOUR PY - 2005// TI - The completed suicide as interplay of genes and environment JO - Forensic science international A1 - Balazic, J. A1 - Marusic, Andrej SP - S1 EP - 3 VL - 147 IS - Suppl N2 - The review will tackle the interplay of genetic and environmental risk factors behind the completed suicide. First, individual differences in suicidal behaviour in relation to heritability are presented followed by a brief discussion of genetic methods currently used to investigate candidate genes for the completed suicide. Further along the polygenetic, multi-factorial model of genetic proneness to suicidal behaviour is presented as interplay of genes and environment. Finally, the future implications in this quickly blossoming field of research are discussed. LA - SN - 0379-0738 UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.forsciint.2004.09.082 ID - ref1 ER -
